Something that trips up a lot of people when they’re first learning Compose is remembering all the different bits of magic that go into making lines like this:

var text by remember { mutableStateOf("") }

I made a little cheat sheet to help break it down, and hopefully serve as a quick reference if you forget.

State is to MutableState as List is to MutableList.

as -> what

Great article BTW, and thanks for reminding about the state holding class and using delegates here.

@louiscad Thanks for the feedback! Re: that word replacement, “a is to b as x is to y” is a common way to state analogies.

This cheat sheet is great, thank you for putting it together 🙏🏼 !
